Report of Independent Registered Public
Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of The
Hartford Mutual Funds, Inc.

In planning and performing our audits of the
financial statements of The Hartford Mutual
Funds, Inc. (the Company) as of and for the year
ended October 31, 2018, in
accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States), we considered the Company's
internal control over financial reporting,
including controls over safeguarding securities, as
a basis for designing our auditing
procedures for the purpose of expressing our
opinion on the financial statements and to
comply with the requirements of Form N-CEN, but
not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's
internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

The management of the Company is responsible
for establishing and maintaining
effective internal control over financial reporting. In
fulfilling this responsibility, estimates
and judgments by management are required to
assess the expected benefits and related
costs of controls. A company's internal control over
financial reporting is a process
designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with U.S
generally accepted accounting principles. A
company's internal control over financial
reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of
records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and
fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2)
provide reasonable assurance that
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in
accordance with U.S generally accepted
accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only
in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (3)
provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of
a company's assets that could have a material
effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control
over financial reporting may not
prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections
of any evaluation of effectiveness to
future periods are subject to the risk that controls
may become inadequate because of
changes in conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures
may deteriorate.

A deficiency in internal control over financial
reporting exists when the design or
operation of a control does not allow management
or employees, in the normal course of
performing their assigned functions, to prevent or
detect misstatements on a timely
basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal
control over financial reporting, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the company's annual or interim
financial statements will not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Our consideration of the Company's internal control
over financial reporting was for the
limited purpose described in the first paragraph and
would not necessarily disclose all
deficiencies in internal control that might be
material weaknesses under standards
established by the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States).
However, we noted no deficiencies in the
Company's internal control over financial
reporting and its operation, including controls over
safeguarding securities that we
consider to be a material weakness as defined
above as of October 31, 2018.

This report is intended solely for the information
and use of management and the Board
of Directors of The Hartford Mutual Funds, Inc. and
the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is not intended to be and should
not be used by anyone other than
these specified parties.
